Leek: So, there was this really shocking incident where a guy named Matthew Birchall went after another man right outside his home. It all went down on June 20, 2022, when the victim stepped out for a smoke. Birchall just walked up and punched him in the face without saying a word.

The poor guy didn’t see it coming. He ended up on the ground, trying to protect himself, but Birchall kept stamping on him—15 times, to be exact. Can you imagine? It must have felt like it would never end. After the attack, the victim went to the hospital and was told he might have a concussion.

In court, the prosecutor shared that the victim had seen Birchall around town but didn’t know him personally. It was just a random, brutal attack. Birchall denied the assault but was found guilty anyway. His lawyer mentioned that he hadn’t been in trouble for 25 years and had some memory issues.

In the end, the magistrates gave him a 26-week suspended sentence and ordered him to pay some compensation and costs. It’s just a wild story of how quickly things can turn violent.
